Thompson has played a total of 12 Game 6's to this point of his career. And yet, there's one game in particular of Thompson's that stands out from the crowd. (The Warriors were on the other end of a 3-1 comeback in the Finals, but that's a story for a different day.) Points Per Game Game No. His averages in those games?

Thompson hit the Splash Brothers' 1000th career playoff 3-pointer in Game 5 of the Finals on Monday night.

The NBA is emphasizing long-distance shots more and more by the year. Curry is the only player in NBA history with more than 500 playoff 3-pointers, and obviously, for a duo to reach 1,000, someone needs to have crossed 500. Golden State's duo of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson entered Game 5 of the 2022 NBA Finals with 999 career postseason 3-pointers between the two of them.

Klay Thompson's historic 3-point shooting made two more marks in the record books during Game 5 of the 2022 NBA Finals.

Thompson’s night of 3-point achievement came exactly three years after the five-time All-Star suffered a torn ACL in the 2019 NBA Finals against Toronto. The Warriors missed the playoffs the next two seasons, which Thompson missed while recovering from that injury and a torn Achilles tendon. The evolution of the long ball and the Warriors’ recent dominance has made the 3-point shot a historically prominent part of the NBA Finals. Thompson’s first 3-pointer of Game 5 was also the 1,000th postseason 3 made by him or Curry. The achievement highlights the duo, long nicknamed the Splash Brothers, and its long-distance dominance since making its playoff debut in 2013.
